Bob Cousy isn't from Worcester. He was born, grew up, and played his high school basketball in New York City.

If going to college in Worcester qualifies one to be "from Worcester", then you need to add Jesse Burkett and Rube Marquard to the list. Both are baseball hall of famers who attended Assumption (at the same time, no less).

Maybe add Babe Ruth to the list, representing Sudbury, where he lived while playing for the Red Sox.
